IIRC the overwing pylons were developed at the outset for the Jag, but the RAF decided that they did not require them, during the build-up for Gulf War 1, the overwing pylon mounting points were 'installed' at a price from Wastaspace, and they have been fitted since.

Basically Wastaspace were paid to remove the mountpoints from the original aircraft and paid to put them back in.
